Frequently Asked Questions

1. Should I work with more than one REALTOR at the same time?

NO! All REALTORS have access to the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) and all of the available listings, so working with one agent with whom you feel trust and feel comfortable will save you time.

2. How long should it take for us to find the right home?

Because our job is to consider your needs and match them with the best house, you may be surprised to find your new home the very first time we look. If not, we’ll continue to look until you feel that you have found that “at home” feeling.

3. What am I supposed to do as I look at the prospective homes to buy?

Make a list of everything you like and don’t like as we go through each home. We can review this information as we continue looking at homes to narrow down the possibilities.

4. What specific things should I look for in a home?

Look for features that you really would enjoy. Don’t be surprised if the home you select is somewhat different from what you had originally envisioned.

5. What questions should I ask about schools?

You may want to know how the state ranks the schools, test scores, sports programs, gifted and special programs or community outreach, parent involvement, convenience to home, bus schedule and school schedule. You may even want to arrange a visit to potential schools.

6. Is it possible to find our dream home?

Yes, however no house is perfect in every way. There will always be something that is not exactly right or in accordance with your criteria. If you are able to find a home with most of the features you need, this may be the home for you.

7. Can I add extra inclusion into the offer to purchase that are not advertised as included?

You should consider the possibility that the sellers had personal or financial reasons to exclude these items. However, we can try to negotiate these inclusions into the offer to purchase.

8. How much will I have to save or have available for a down payment and/or closing costs?

Typically 2-3% of the purchase price will cover most costs. Financing may allow for the seller to assist with some or all fees.

9. How much will my monthly mortgage/payment/costs be?

We will gladly calculate your monthly payment referred to as P.I.T.I. (principal, interest, taxes, and insurance). If applicable, we will also estimate you P.M.I. (Private Mortgage Insurance) or HOA (Home Owner’s Association) dues.
